Chapter 302 What I Want to Get from You
What happened?
This is what's currently puzzling Xiao Jiming.
Having finally broken free of the illusion and stepped out of the apartment building, Xiao Jiming discovered that the entire world had suddenly begun to shake, as if an earthquake had struck.
Having never experienced an earthquake before, Xiao Jiming tried his best to steady himself and helped Lu Xianqing, who was about to fall.
"What happened?" Finally regaining her senses and no longer acting like a mentally challenged person, Lu Xianqing had never experienced an earthquake before, and this was the first time she had come into contact with the concept of an earthquake.
She grabbed Xiao Jiming's hand in return, stumbling and struggling to keep herself from falling to the ground.
On the other side, Xie Yungui skillfully found a spot where the shaking was less intense.
After observing the two types of people in the world, Song Juexiao chose to follow in Xie Yungui's footsteps without hesitation.
Never mind them. Let them fight against nature if they want to. How can people forget their own talents and instincts?
Song Juexiao shrugged and opened his mouth slightly.
"I will walk steadily."
If the world were to stop shaking, Song Juexiao's current reserves would be insufficient, and there's a high chance they would drain him completely, making his survival uncertain.
However, it's different when it comes to Song Juexiao himself.
No matter how much the ground shakes, it won't affect Song Juexiao in the slightest.
Only after the tremors finally subsided did they have time to observe what changes had occurred.
Similarly, the first thing they saw was that mask.
A black cloak draped over the person, fluttering in the wind. The hood was blown down, but beneath it was another mask, a smiling mask perched on her face.
After the world of the dungeon was turned upside down, she was the only one still standing safely in mid-air.
"Who is that?" Seeing that there was no answer to the first question, Song Juexiao moved closer to Pei Zhaoye and asked in a low voice.
Pei Zhaoye's bleeding hadn't stopped yet, and while bleeding, he was still responsible for answering Song Juexiao's questions.
He searched his memory for a long time, and finally only remembered the one who was closest to her.
"A man in black, wearing a mask... Is he from the Hidden Order Society?" Pei Zhaoye muttered to himself, not expecting to get the answer from Xiao Jiming and his group.
Lu Xianqing paid no attention to what was happening outside.
She stared at Pei Zhaoye's still-bleeding arm for a while, then Lu Xianqing said softly, "You're about to lose too much blood, aren't you?"
"Why don't you die and then revive yourself? That way you won't have to bother with treatment!" Lu Xianqing suggested earnestly.
In the midst of his busy schedule, Song Juexiao was trying to figure out what had happened in the entire instance when they were just trapped in the illusion, while also trying to explain to Lu Xianqing.
"...Weren't you taught?" Song Juexiao asked, puzzled. "Not all superhumans can return from the brink of death like you did."
Lu Xianqing's excitement at the scene she had just witnessed in the illusion instantly turned to despair, and she reluctantly pouted.
Of course she remembered that others had explained this to her, but when she thought of the endless corpses in the illusion, Lu Xianqing couldn't help but fantasize in her mind—what if?
If Jiang Xingni and she are not the only exceptions, then perhaps there are quite a few other people with similar abilities among all these people with superpowers.
So Lu Xianqing said this almost subconsciously.
After Song Juexiao poured cold water on her, she finally calmed down and realized that she had been too influenced by her obsession in the illusion.
Even Jiang Xingni might not possess the same superpowers as her. Otherwise, why wouldn't Jiang Xingni use the same tactics as her when they fought?
Lu Xianqing did not believe that someone with the ability to be immortal could choose not to die as their fighting method in battle.
The girl lowered her eyes: "...Bandage his wounds."
After all, Pei Zhaoye's wounds were still bleeding.
There were no tools to stop the bleeding around, and the treatment—specifically He Jingtong—was not nearby either, so Song Juexiao stared at Pei Zhaoye's wound and sighed.
She said softly, "Restored to its original state."
She wasn't sure if she could heal Pei Zhaoye's wounds, after all, her ability was the power of words, not the power of words to change reality, and Pei Zhaoye was really ruthless to himself.
A single slash could be described as deep enough to expose the bone.
The moment Song Juexiao finished speaking, the wound that was still bleeding gradually stopped, and then began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Looks like you don't need me anymore?" a female voice said behind them.
Song Juexiao turned around and saw a familiar group of people—Ye Xunnan and her two teammates.
Ye Xunnan turned his head and smiled at them: "I saw you were standing here without moving, and I thought you were injured and needed me. It seems that you don't need me now."
Upon seeing the arrival of outsiders, Song Juexiao became silent again, while the red-haired girl simply nodded reservedly, pretending to be mute.
Ye Xunnan only exchanged a few casual pleasantries, and receiving no response from Song Juexiao, her smile remained largely unchanged, still gentle and graceful. Then, she cut to the chase: "So what exactly happened?"
Their team was doing a perfectly good job with the quest when suddenly, they saw the text on the quest slowly change, turning into a black, worm-like creature huddled together.
The group of people, who had no information whatsoever, exchanged glances, spotted Xiao Jiming's team nearby, and walked over without hesitation. Of course, it would be best if they could get information, but if they couldn't, joining forces with them would also be a good option.

What exactly happened?
This is also the question Jiang Xingni wanted to ask.
Let's go back to the very beginning, watching He Jingtong gently kick the dead man.
Jiang Xingni could even see a question in He Jingtong's eyes—is there anything he can do?
The question lingered in Jiang Xingni's mind, but he couldn't answer it.
"Let's cooperate." Jiang Xing tilted her head and smiled at He Jingtong. Since it was about cooperation anyway, what difference did it make who she talked to? "I want the VOID research data. Of course, you can also ask for anything else you need."
Although her face was covered by a mask, He Jingtong could still tell from her voice that Jiang Xingni was smiling.
He Jingtong replied without hesitation, "I'll give it to you then."
As for what he wants...
He struggled to suppress the urge to take that demand upon himself.
